I just connected my HD Directv DRV to my home network using a powerline adapter. The reason I did this was to try out the beta version of Directv On Demand. If given a choice, I would rather download the latest DVD release of American Gangster directly on my DVR as opposed to going to Blockbuster to get it or ordering it from Netflix – again, if given an equal choice. Presently, there’s decent content to download from On Demand (including movies like the newest Bourne Supremacy movie or content like 3 minute to 9 minute golf tips which are free). I realize Apple TV is re-launching their new service. This On Demand product could give it a run for it’s money for Directv users (at least those with the HD DVR during this beta period)
